I am seeing an issue when trying to format the output from rev-list command.
git log --pretty=format:"%H - %an, %ar : %s" When I attempt the above
string, instead of printing to the shell, LESS is opened and the
output is displayed there.

Actually, less is running in both cases.

If you do not want pager, run it with no-pager, like this:

	git --no-pager log ...your other parameters...

Also note that the pager is automatically disabled if you redirect
stdout, so --no-pager is only required in some fringe cases, notably
when attempting to run git under GDB.
